Everyday, people go about their routine
Acclimated to the world around them.
Familiar places that are always there,
Preferring the view through a windshield
As the wonders blur, passing by.
Instead,
Stop.
And focus
Through the lens of a camera instead.
Capture the essence,
Instead of a fragment.
View life.
A baby entering the world,
The sparkling twilight in a child's eyes.
Spun silk of a spiders web
Entwining the morning dew.
The fauna all around,
Floral arrangements of Mother Nature,
Span the length of continents.
An ever changing mosaic of the natural world.
Limestone caverns to coral reefs,
River beds to ocean shoals,
Snow covered peaks to white sand beaches.
Colossal structures of man
Penetrate the atmosphere.
Architectural marvels in which we thrive,
Blanketed by clouds and stars.
With a nightlight moon
And galaxies glow.
The sunlight spectrum hand paints the biosphere.
So focus through the lens,
At our kaleidoscopic world.
Acclimated to the world around them.
Familiar places that are always there,
Preferring the view through a windshield
As the wonders blur, passing by.
Instead,
Stop.
And focus
Through the lens of a camera instead.
Capture the essence,
Instead of a fragment.
View life.
A baby entering the world,
The sparkling twilight in a child's eyes.
Spun silk of a spiders web
Entwining the morning dew.
